Abstract

A method of manufacturing a printed wiring board by a build-up technique improves the bonding force between a conductor circuit and a resin. After the surface of the first conductor pattern is roughened by oxidation, an insulating layer is formed to expose a viahole portion of the first conductor pattern. Then the resin insulating layer is roughened and the board is reduction processed before a plating operation is carried out.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
I claim: 
     
       1. A method of manufacturing a printed circuit board comprising the steps of: forming a circuit layer on a board;   roughening a surface of said circuit layer;   forming an insulating layer on said circuit layer having an opening exposing a viahole area of the first circuit layer;   roughening a surface of said insulating layer;   subjecting only said exposed viahole area of said circuit layer to a reduction process after said roughening of the surface of said insulating layer; and   applying an additional plating to said printed circuit board following said reduction processing without using a soft etching process prior to applying said additional plating.   
     
     
       2. A method of manufacturing a printed circuit board according to claim 1, wherein said roughening of the surface of the first circuit layer is an oxidizing process using potassium persulfate and sodium hydroxide. 
     
     
       3. A method of manufacturing a printed circuit board according to claim 1, wherein said roughening of the surface of the first circuit layer is an oxidizing process using sodium hypochlorite and sodium hydroxide. 
     
     
       4. A method of manufacturing a printed circuit board comprising the steps of: forming a circuit layer on a board;   roughening a surface of said circuit layer to provide an anchor effect;   forming an insulating layer on said circuit layer without reducing said anchor effect;   providing an opening in said insulating layer to expose a selected region of said circuit layer;   roughening a surface of said insulating layer;   subjecting only said selected region of said circuit layer exposed from said opening to a reduction process after said roughening of the surface of said insulating layer; and   applying an additional plating on said insulating layer and said selected region exposed from said opening after said reduction process.
